Why visit

A dramatic Baroque chateau perched high above the Dyje River near Podyjí National Park. A medieval border castle was transformed into an aristocratic Baroque residence whose Hall of Ancestors dominates the cliff-top complex. It is included because it adds a distinctive experience to a realistic Vranov nad Dyjí or regional itinerary rather than acting as a filler stop.

What you will see

  • Hall of Ancestors.
  • Cliff-top architecture.
  • Dyje valley views.

History
